volreattach(8)volreattach(8)NAMEvolreattach - Reattaches disk drives that have once again become acces‐
sible
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/volreattach [-rb] [accessname...]
/usr/sbin/volreattach -c accessname
OPTIONS
The volreattach utility has the following options: Calls the volrecover
utility to attempt to recover stale plexes of any volumes on the failed
disk. Performs the reattach operation in the background. Checks
whether a reattach is possible. No operation is performed, but the name
of the disk group and disk media name at which the disk can be reat‐
tached is displayed.
DESCRIPTION
The volreattach utility attempts to reattach disks using the same disk
group and media names they had before detachment.
This operation may be necessary if a disk has a transient failure, or
if some disk drivers are unloaded or unloadable when the Logical Stor‐
age Manager is started, causing disks to enter the failed state.
If the problem is fixed, the volreattach command can be used to reat‐
tach the disks without plexes being flagged as stale, as long as the
reattach happens before any volumes on the disk are started.
The volreattach command is called from the voldiskadm menus as part of
disk recovery.
The volreattach utility tries to find a disk with a disk group and disk
ID matching that of the disk(s) being reattached. If the matching disk
is found, the reattach operation may still fail if the original cause
(or some other cause) for the disk failure still exists.
EXIT CODES
A zero exit status is returned if it is possible to perform a reattach.
Otherwise, non-zero is returned.
